Freaks of the Cyclone.
?^V^?^?^ort? of the Ohm cyclone of last
. ; ^ Friday show the remarkable freaks that
jipi these wind storms play with haman life j
^?^^ property. ID the house of George
Honman, was an eight-months-old baby,
^r - It was pfdeed* up by the wind, laid in a
' feather bed, and the whole business,
i;.' "baby and ail, was carried one hundred
^J?id,.?ftj"f??fc? & was then deposited
l^iwcLa lag: was. thrown on either side of
^^^?^p^.^^g fcbe bed to the ground,
^^pifier the storm a search was instituted
fe^iof- the baby. One of the searchers
|^^?rd:it cry,And, following the direction
|?;;?n3icated by the sound, found the little
j&st?* :HaH, Jr. of Neptune,
?i.>Jpejnjjrt?--. that he saw" straws that- were j

Feathers were ?tripped #om
chie&ens on- the farm as- clean- as though
t&e iewls hid been prepared for the; pot
\fj a cook, j?be chickens were caught
?tty aa obst??ctio? that held them for
the wind to- operate upon them.
William Stevenson says that he saw
the cyclone approach. It looked like a
great black ball in the act of rolling
over the surface of the earth. It came
along with frightful velocity, and made
a noise louder than the roariog of a
hundred thunder peals: It was-a clear
night everywhere but in the wake of
the fearful monster. It was about a
half mile wide, and it twisted immense
trees of at the ground as though they
were ;pipesteoms. It eut crops of grain
anti grass-off as clean. as. a mowing
machine, and in instances stripped
trees of bark as a hungry Italian would
peel a banana.
George Fox's wagon was carried half
a mile. The tires on two wheels were
each cut in two as with a sharp instru?
ment, and each partly straightened ex?
actly in the same shape. At John
Griming dishes were carried and driven
into stumps so that they could not be
pulled out.
A Ten-Year-Old Murderess..
The Aiken Journal an<t Revieic of
the 27th inst : Jane Walker, a little
colored girl? about ten. years of age,
was committed to the "County" jail "last
week by Trial Justice E. A.- Eubanks
of Mill-brook Township, on a charge of
murder: From what we can gather it
seems that Jane was required by her
parents to mind the cnild of a near rela?
tive, and becoming tired bf her charge
administered concentrated lye to it,
which caused its death. Jane upon be?
ing arrested denied the charge, but. ad?
mitted that her mother had often warn?
ed ber that concentrated lye would kill
anyone who swallowed it.
Twins in West Wateree,.
We learn that three pairs of twins
have been born tn West Wateree within
the past few months. One gentleman
who has about seven daughters boasts
of two fine girls-twins, and another
boasts of two fine boys.; We also learn
that the one who is the father of the
girls is trying to trade with the one who
is- the father of the boys. Our sympa?
thies are with him and we hope the
trade may be satisfactorily made.

The thirty-seeoud annual session of
the Grand Lodge of Good Templars met
in Eichmond, Va., on Tuesday iast.
There was a good attendance of dele?
gates and the Order seems to be in a
?ouT?sbing condition; During the past
Fear 284 new lodges have beeu formed,
?nd 11.463 members added to the Or
Jer. The present membership amounts
tn round numbers to about three huu
?red thousand. The membership is
rapidly increasing, and the officers of
the Order presented very encouraging
reports.
The colony of Southerners/ who left
for Brazil at the close of the late war
BOW numbers about 500 souls. They
ire settled in the iuterior, 400 miles
from ?io Janeiro, where they have a
tract about fifteen miles square. Some
>f them hold slaves. They raise water?
melons and cotton, and arc in a general
way quite prosperous, but need schools. ]
Their English is getting rather inferior j
and somewhat mixed. They seem to be
proud that they are Am erica us, and on?
ly in one or two instances have they be?
come citizens of Brazil by naturaliza?
tion.
Why Doesn't Prohibition
Prohibit?
Because laws don't enforce them?
selves. It is not the private citizen's
business to enforce laws ; courts and
officers are maintained for that pur?
pose. The officers set to enforce Pro?
hibition have been too many "bully
boys." How about the "bully
boys V7 The saloon is his mother (lie
was nominated in the saloon.) The
saloon is his father (he was nominated
by the saloon.) The saloon is his
idol (he was nominated for the sa?
loon.) In the language of the cate?
chism, his chief eud is to glorify the
saloon and enjoy it forever. Honest?
ly now, could you expect him to
murder, at one blow, his father, h?6
mother, and his Joss? Prohibition
will prohibit when the officers of
the law are no longer *'bully boys"
-no longer .nominated, in, for or by
the saloon and no^ longer afraid of it,

it, is tite o?Seer ^<e|^?ted in opposition

Methodist Roosters and Bar>
?. tist Pullets.
We clip the following from the South?
ern Christian Advoeate; "In a church
not a thousand miles away, the brethren
were recently gravely considering the
question of dancing, which had been
brought forward by the engagement of
a number of jouog sisters in this world?
ly amusement, when one of the brethren
arose and declared that 'if it were not
for the Methodist roosters our Baptist
pullets would not be led so frequently
to offend against the church.' We are
not informed as to what action the
church took ; they may yet be consider?
ing the point made by their brother,
who has, by the way, gained some no?
toriety as ac objector. We take the
liberty here and now of referring the
question as presented above to our be?
loved brother of the Sout?ieni Christian
Advocate, with the request that he shall
consider and report at his earliest con?
venience as. to what ought to be done
in the premises/'-Baptist Courier.
**Ab, brother," replies the editor of
the Advocate, '.'you are too hard for
us Those dear little 'Baptist pullets'
are so sweet and Dice, it is impossible
to keep the 'Methodist roosters' in their
own range. Cropping their wings won't
do it-they mount the fence, feathers
or no feathers; aDd when they get over
into the Baptist common aud feed awhile
on the long grass that grows by the
water's edge, they forget the wholesome
lessons .learned on the Methodist high
lands, and strut and prance about as if
to the manor borb. Can't you induce
your 'pullets' to teach them better man?

Mark the Facts.
Mr: Neilson, the most distinguish?
ed of English actuaries, after long and
careful investigation and comparison
ascertained by actual experience the
following astounding facts :
Between the ages of 15 and 20,
where 10 total abstainers die, 18
moderate drinkers die.
Between the age of 20 and 30,
where 10 total, abstainers die, 31
moderate drinkers die.
Between the age of 30 and 40,
where 10 total abstainers die, 40
moderate drinkers die.
Or, expressing; the fact tn another
form, he says :
At total abstainer 20 years old has
chance of living 44 years longer, or
until 64 years old;
Moderate drinker 20 years old has
the chance ;of living 151-2 years lon?
ger, or until 35 1-2 years old.
A total abstainer 30 years old has
the chance of living 36 1-2 j'ears lon?
ger, or until 66.1-2 years old.
. A moderate drinker 30 years old
has the chance.pf living 13 1-2 years
longer, or until 43 1-2 old.
A total abstainer 40 years old has
the chance of living 281-2 years lon?
ger, or until 68 1-2 years old.
Moderate drinker 40 years old has
the chance of living ll 1-2 years lon?

A Man of Principle.
Schumacher, the Ohio oatmeal king,
who has recently suffered greatly by a
fire-to the extent of the entire loss of
hia,immence flour mills at Akron-is
a mon -of powes, pluck and principle ;
and hence is a very hard man to kill by
reverses of any sort. A few days after
the fire two men ; from Cincinnati ap?
peared in Akron, .and called on Mr.
Schumacher for the purpose of buying
a vast quantity of grain which had been
more or less.damaged by the great con?
flagration. The matter was at once
talked over, a price for the entire lot
was agreed upon, and a che;k was be?
ing drawn for the purchase, amounting
to thousands of dollars, when one of
the buyers, -as the check was about to
be banded to Mr. Schumacher, care?
lessly remarked that the damaged
grain 'would make a very large amount
of /whiskey.' -
'What! Do you want this grain to
make whiskey of V inquired My Schu?
macher, stepping back a few feet.
'Yes ; we are distillers ip Cincinnati.'
'Then, gentlemen, you cannot buy
any grain of me. I have no grain to
sell to be made into whiskey.. Good
day '
,f We have no personal or business
relations past or prospective with bim,
and do nut know him at all, except for ;
this incident; but we. predict that.the
?miilsof Mr. Schumacher will be re?
built, and that his oatmeal will, with a
better aud purer flavor than ever before,
be io very great demand ; for all buyers
and consumers of this healthful and
popular food will be sure that Schu?
macher's principles are not mixed up
and sold with his oatmeal. Readers of
his paper hereafter should not, and we
know will not. fail, in making their
purchases in this line, to call for the
'Schumacher brand.' Three cheers for
Schumacher and his oatmeal l^-The

He Knew all ..About It,
BY RICHARD JJEWT?N, D. I>.
Some time ago a gentleman was go?
ing from Boston to Albany, and on his
Journey got into conversation with a
young man, a divinity student, who
was traveling the same way. Some?
thing was said about drinking, when
the divinity student said :
'I ara only tweuty-five years of age,
but you can't tell me anything about
that. I know all there is about.drink?
ing.''
The gentleman showed interest in
the young man's experience, and he
continued v
.When I waa eighteen I went to
Boston to take charge of the books in
a mercantile house. In the boarding?
house where I'boarded were four young
men. We became companions. They
all drank and invited me to join them.
I declined. I said, *I am eighteen and
have never drank, and it would not be
just to my Christian home and my fam?
ily to do fo now.' I resisted for a time ;
but they resorted to ridicule, and that
I could not stand. I drank and, in two
years delirium tremens overtook me.
[ suffered agonies. I trembled and real?
ized my danger, and in alarm sought
refuge in my Saviour's strength, and
I now expect soon to preach the Gos?
pel.'
'And will you tell me what has be?
come of your boarding-house frieuds ?'
.Three of them,'said the young man,
'are io drunkards' graves, and the fourth
is in prison.'

strong drink is !
